No Deal but a Double
Niveau 36
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
After briefly discussing an ICM deal, Flynn proposed dealing, but State declined, saying, "Let's play." Both sportsmen shook hands, and the tournament continued.
In the very first hand after that, State went all in against Flynn's open-raise, and Flynn called.
Adrian State: 9♥8♣ 
Jamie Flynn: 7♠7♣
"Let's flip it," State said to his friend, who was at the rail.
The flop revealed 7♦3♥10♥. "Not too bad," State's friend claimed.
The turn showed a K♠, and State eagerly awaited a jack on the river. Although no jack appeared, the 6♦ completed State's straight draw. He doubled up, taking a 2:1 chip lead.
